Any contributions received so far?

I guess this display of affection for the band is more needed than ever.

I'm trying so hard to finish mine and the software is actually making me travel sick. I've given up a few times. I'm using a series of photos to tell a story and it won't play them in the right order and skips through them at breakneck speed. When I try to move them about the time line skips. At the moment it's superimposing pictures on each other in random order. It's Movie Edit Touch 2. The PC doesn't have MS editing software like my old one did.

I'm going to have to give up. I have enough stress at work without being sick at the weekend. I really wanted to do this but [sick]

Going to give it one last shot. Downloading a different programme. That one was impossible. I got quite nauseous trying to keep the images still as it tried to put them in a random order. Long gaps between photos with no obvious reason and no way to cut time between images.

Those of you that have done videos, have you put sound on?

I've been trying to have something decent, but everything turned out bad.

I sent one in the end. I used Corel video editing which came with a quick edit programme. It uses templates. The trouble is that all the templates were well over 30 seconds. I managed to trim mine to 32 seconds but then there's a lot of empty space at the end and I couldn't find a tool to chop the end off. I could take sections out but not the end. I sent it anyway. We'll see whether it can be used. 30 seconds is not a lot.

How many videos did you send, Willy?
I meant to send a video with my local friends Michael and Morten....we did all the preliminary work but we never found the time to finish it
